Ken Sugimori
Ken Sugimori is credited on more than 1,100 Pokémon TCG cards from 1999 to 2022, spanning sets such as Base, Gym Heroes, and Neo Genesis. The work favors clear, character-forward staging, playful moods, and vibrant-to-pastel color palettes with balanced, simple compositions.
“The Drowzee card captures a moment where the Pokémon seems to be in the midst of a hypnotic trance, its eyes closed and body slightly swaying. The background is a swirl of colors, evoking a dreamlike atmosphere that complements Drowzee's role as the Hypnosis Pokémon. This scene feels both serene and slightly eerie, as if the viewer is peering into a world where dreams and reality blur. The character’s expression hints at the unique power it holds, inviting curiosity about the dreams it might encounter.”
